I get that former and current Presidential candidate Mike Huckabee is charming and has a good sense of humor. I understand his appeal.
He was the guest on tonight's Daily Show and once again showed that in addition to being charming and funny, he's a complete ASSHAT. Stewart took him head-on over his views on gay marriage and Huckabee trotted out all the BS the social conservatives usually shovel: being gay is a lifestyle choice, marriage has been defined as one man/one woman for 5000 years, marriage is the bedrock of our society, if we allow gay marriage we have to allow polygamy. It's all bullcrap and Stewart called him out on every point. It was devastating.
Of course, at the end, Huckabee had to whine about the unfairness of people calling him a homophobe just because he wants to limit their rights and treat them as second class citizens. Boo hoo, Mike.
You're a bigot and a homophobe. Bite me.

I’m sorry I missed that. It continues to amaze me that social conservatives keep harping on the “one man/one woman” thing when so many of the Biblical patriarchs were polygamists, and Jesus and the apostles weren’t married. Monogamous marriage seems to be the exception in the Bible.
Stewart brought up that very point. Huckabee merely changed inanities.
